Alexei Ramirez had a pair of hits and knocked in a run and
Carlos Quentin added an RBI and a steal for Chicago.

Danks (5-4), who leads the majors with a 1.48 ERA away from
home, had another solid road performance. The 23-year-old
lefthander, who scattered four hits and four walks while
striking out three, recorded his first win - home or away -
since May 29.

"It has to be just a coincidence, I don't know," Danks said of
his performance on the road and who has an ERA is a full two
runs lower away from home. "I don't feel any different going
into games at home as opposed to games on the road.
Fortunately, I've done real well on the road, and I could throw
better at home, but it's just part of the game."

Matt Thornton and Octavio Dotel combined to pitch the seventh
before Scott Linebrink hurled a 1-2-3 eighth. Closer Bobby
Jenks retired the side in the ninth to record his 17th save of
the season.

"Our bullpen has been great all year long," White Sox manager
Ozzie Guillen said of his relief pitchers who lead the majors in
ERA. "Once again, they did a tremendous job."

The White Sox got the scoring started in the second inning on a
broken-bat single to shallow left by Ramirez. In the following
inning, Quentin added a run-scoring single that plated Orlando
Cabrera for the 2-0 advantage.

The lead would stand as Danks was able to avoid serious trouble.
He escaped the third inning unscathed after the first two
batters reached base safely.

The Austin, Texas native also induced an inning-ending
double-play in the fourth with runners on the corners.

A liner right back to the mound off the bat of Danny Ardoin gave
Danks little time to react as the ball found his mitt, before he
turned and fired to first.

"Fortunately, I was able to throw my glove up in the right
spot," Danks said. "I didn't really even know I caught it at
first. I definitely had luck on my side that inning."

Danks got in the act offensively as well, connecting for his
first career hit with a sharp single off Corey Wade in the
sixth.

"It's fun to have a batting average now," joked Danks, who was
hitless in his eight previous career at-bats.

The punchless Dodgers were able to muster only one extra-base
hit despite getting runners on, leaving Los Angeles manager Joe
Torre to call it a game of missed opportunities.

"Offensively, you think you have it where you want it - a couple
of men on base with the guys you want to hit," Torre said. "We
just didn't produce."

Dodgers rookie starter Clayton Kershaw (0-2) was shaky in
four-plus innings, allowing two runs and six hits with four
walks, three strikeouts and two wild pitches. He exited after
allowing the first two runners of the fifth to reach base.

Kershaw continues to search for his first career win in seven
starts after also being dealt five no-decisions since being
called up from Class AA Jacksonville just over a month ago.

"I'm sure he's more frustrated that we aren't winning," Torre
said. "Pitchers can't control how many runs are scored. He keeps
the opposition to two runs and that's a winnable game for us."

Juan Pierre stole his 31st and 32nd bases of the season for the
Dodgers.
